Mack & Cook
Friday 9th April | Free Show - Book your table today! | Supported By Tom Barnes
This is a big one folks, Murray and Lizzie have been looking for a reason to go visit (our mate, Jackson) in Dubbo = and we've finally found a really good one!
But do you need a reason to go - what a fine town, what a great bar - and we'll be playing songs rarely ever heard live (all our fave B-sides accross five albums) and are a bit too peaceful and storytelling for a big five piece soul movers set.
So please - come join us! We will have driven a long way to shake your hand and we can't wait - this really is a long held dream come true for us - so we really hope you can make it!
​
Over a dozen years of writing songs, hundreds of live shows as festival favourites The Soul Movers and thousands of hours on the road and in the sky - recording at many of the world's most iconic studios together -Lizzie Mack and yes, you know him, Murray Cook have decided to unplug, strip back and pull out some slightly dusty and a bit lost tracks from over their four albums together. They plan to sort out the B - Sides that are maybe a bit too gentle, sultry or deep for the hard scrutiny of a five piece band but just perfect for an intimate, acoustic, story - telling seance.
